That was a blast! My pics are on my camera at home, but I'll add them to the thread tonight.

It was awesome to meet some new monkeys and non-monkeys. Everyone there was so chill and laid back, we had some complete strangers show us a kickass loop, peter6061 and Bustaframe went with us for a killer ride. After the last nasty climb, I picked up Bustaframe's heavy ass bike - I couldn't believe he huffed that thing up all those hills!

I had trouble walking up the stairs at work this morning.

Ha-ha. No doubt, I'm about to put my bike on a diet. The order is going in tonight so it can shed a few lbs. That thing was killing me on those climbs.

Why does that not surprise me?

 

[TreeSaw]

YEAH!!! It was an AWESOME weekend. I am SO glad to have meet a bunch of new monkeys and non-monkeys. Riding was good...especially the Sunday post-breakfast ride (that trail was really kickin' my arse!!!). I do have some pics and we'll get them up tonight. Thanks again for putting up with my slow self on those rides

Cool! When you head this way, you'll have me to talk to as well. Treesaw and I are usually together near the back of our group rides.

 

[Crazy Sweeper]

I seem to remember you guys being in front of me a bunch of times.

oooh whatcha getting????????

 

[BussaFrame]

New tires. No more DRS so I will put a big ring back on. That will drop a couple lbs right there. After that I will weight then re-evaluate. If it is still looking bad then I might just get a prop 1000 and move some parts from my 4X over. Then sell off extra parts, frame, brakes, cranks... You know how it goes. I think that might be the best option actually.

 

[stosh]

Where the heck is everybody else's pics goshhhh???

 

[stosh]

I'm really sad MBW is over... I guess all good things must come to an end......

[jacksonpt]

you have a paticular race in mind??

Right now I'm thinking about the 6 Hours of Power (probably solo), the 8 Hours of Roundtop (probably a 2-man team), and either the Darkhorse 40 or the Highland Forest Classic

 

[Crazy Sweeper]

getting a little impatient waiting for pics. Guess that'll teach me to bring my own camera next time. I heard a rumor that somebody has a pic of stosh on a bike?!?

From left to right: The Dude, TreeSaw, Echo, jacksonpt(back), IndianGuy, Crazy Sweeper and brews.


Echo, TheDude and brews all rocked out on SingleSpeeds for the day...which wasn't easy, but the sure made it look that way.

[TreeSaw]

We did, however, capture this moment....which will definately be burned in our minds-eye for far too long...check out these headlights for night riding!

:devil:

 

[hooples3]

[Crazy Sweeper]

great pics Sq-earl. Thanks for not posting my dab pics.

 

[jacksonpt]

nice pics indeed

 

[The_Dude]

Hey nice riding with you folks! The good weather was a blessing! Hey Echo, 24hrs of Old Pueblo?

 

[stosh]

It's funny but I think MBW actually changed my GF's life... we were talking about it last night.

As a child she never really went camping or did much "outdoor" stuff. We had only been camping once before and it poured the whole time so it wasn't a great experience. This time not only was the camping/location great but she met great people and there was a lot of stuff to do. She was telling me last night how she feels like a new person and has taken an entirely new look at life....
I'm still a little dazed by MBW myself, I still feel like my heart is there. It's weird and makes for a difficult time at work.

 

[stosh]

was this pic before or after I fell asleep?

I'll get them up probably tonight. This whole PT job and school on top of the FT job thing is getting a little tired. I think the PT job has just about come to and end. School tonight, so if I get home at a reasonable hour, the pics will go up.

Don't get your hopes up unless you like to see pictures of randomly colored 'blurs' or 'streaks' zipping through the woods. --actually, some of them came out pretty well.

I have no clue you probably were out cold, or out on a night ride

You're the only person who got a pic of me.

I think I've got one of you on that 'wall-ride' bit at Tomaqua(sp?) and maybe a couple others.

I did get that, and I figured I'd send that over and you (or she) could post that if you (or she) wanted.
